Just going to rock with the no focus thing......
The stars have been added to the Christmas wallhanging..... minus a number of points....
These QAYG blocks have had sashing added..... and Marilyn has helped with how to add the borders QAYG ....
Each block is like a little quilt on it's own... rather fun...
I have made 9 Churn Dash blocks.... and now I have enough to put them together.... Chookyblue is hosting the Churn Dash SAL.....
This is how the scraps are being put together.....
I saw Julie's one (see HERE) and she kindly shared the sizes of her pieces with me.... She made smaller blocks after seeing Donna's one (seen on THIS post with the grey sashing)
It is my "leaders and enders" project and is being useful as I do these blocks
A set of 9 fat quarters of spots which I have had for a while and thought this simple design would be good....
too many dots made my eyes go funny
Not totally sold on the look but it is better than no sashing - and it will be a slightly bigger quilt - I will add borders in the grey.
Righto, Gotto Go - borders to add to the sampler, quilting to be done to the wall-hanging, churn-dashes to lay out, grey sashing to be added to the dots and include leaders and enders ....
Hope you have a good rest of the week....xx

Those spots would be very eye-popping without the grey sashing.....love the new quilting design, it's very pretty! Well done on all your efforts.
You have a very busy week ahead Fiona, wonderful projects underway.
I am worn out just reading this! Whew. I love the dots with their sashing, reminds me of an artist whose name I cannot pluck out of the air at the moment. Anyway, the QAYG is absolutely gorgeous, love all those beautiful blocks. xx
Now i have spots before my eyes. LOL. Love the butterfly quilting pattern. All your projects are looking good.
I think the stars look wonderful in your wall hanging. Great way to do a border.
And lovely work on your QAYG. Great quilting for each block.
I think the spots are fun. Yes, crazy on the eyes, but love the look.
Love the Christmas hanging and just wow for the QAYG I can see how all those dots would make you see spots. You are getting a nice collection of churn dash too xx
Love the Christmas wallhanging, great fun, talk about spots before your eyes, your butterfly quilting is so sweet, very pretty. I like the idea of each block being a little quilt on its own with fun quilting. Your are so prolific with your projects, I wonder if you have time to breathe lol xcx
Those spots definitely needed taming. What is it with points, I've lost a few in my churn dash blocks.
Lot's of lovely happenings in your no focus world at the moment.
Hi Fiona ... I love LOVE your christmas wallhanging. I really like the effect of the grey borders with all those spots - definately stops your eyes from going cross eyed.
So many lovely projects to keep you busy…
Those dots would make my eyes go funny too!
The butterflies 🦋 and ribbons 🎀 quilting is pretty.
The fact that the Friendship Stars are missing points makes them as whimsical as the angel is. Rather charming. Fantastic work on your QAYG! I love polka-dots and spots but this is more like chicken pox. I much prefer it with the sashing, thank you for saving my eyes, lol. Lovely quilting. Enjoy. ;^)
Great progress on them all.
